Firstly, there IS clear left-right bias in the panel selections
Only three journalists who primarily work for left-wing outlets appeared on Question Time in 2021
TWENTY journalists who primarily work for right-wing outlets appeared

the-free-press.co.uk/2022/11/03/a-q…It gets worse...
A mere TWO trade unionists/worker representatives appeared on Question Time in 2021
TWENTY-SEVEN employers/employer representatives, mostly millionaires like Theo Paphitis, who appeared twice
That's right, Paphitis HIMSELF appeared as many times as worker reps
Oxbridge grads, private school attendees and millionaires are also massively over-represented
77 out of the 194 guests (39.7%) were privately educated
This contrasts with 7% of the population as a whole

#bbcqt
the-free-press.co.uk/2022/11/03/a-q…36 out of the 194 guests (18.6%) were verified millionaires
And keep in mind, that's only the ones we can VERIFY (through publicly revealed wealth)
The likelihood is that almost EVERY
#bbcqt panellist (and Fiona Bruce) is a millionaire - large salaries, property portfolios, etc
So there you have it, the BBC's flagship panel debate:
Skewed to the right
Gives wealthy employers 13.5 times as much airtime as worker reps
Overpopulated by Oxbridge, private school + millionaire elites
We are paying to be propagandised
